Hi All, I have a question regarding filing a tax return. I apologize if this is not the right place for this question. Do I need to file the tax return since I did not work in 2015 neither in US nor Canada? An H&R block agent told me I didn't need to since I didn't work in 2015. I want to...

I wrote Canadian Immigration.

I just wanted to share that after 67 days from landing, my PR card came in today. I hope those who are still waiting will get to the end very soon!

I think you can call the port you entered and they will give you instructions on how to apply for your entry record. That's what i did when my passport didn't get stamped at Maine-New Brunswick border. I think it took me about a month to get that entry record letter. But I didn't end up using...

Hi all! I'm an October applicant but I followed this thread regularly and posted on here too. I really appreciate all the information I've got on here, especially the one regarding inland vs. outland application. About a year ago, when I was just about ready to send my inland application off...

So I went and visited US a couple of weeks after I landed. When I came back, I went through customs at Montreal airport. I told the officer that I was a PR as I handed him me and my son's passports. Right away, he asked for my PR card. I said I hadn't received it yet. I also told him that when I...

This reply is way over due. Thank you for all the information you have given me. You have a wealth of immigration knowledge! About a week ago, I came back from a trip to the US. I'll share my experience in the next post.

I had a pleasant landing experience at Maine-New Brunswick border today. I presented my passport and CoPR. The officer asked me to check my CoPR for errors. It took about 15 mins for the officer to enter my information in the computer. Then he asked me to answer 2 questions on CoPR (past crimes...

Next century! Lol I hope not. I landed today. The agent said it'll take about 8 weeks although it said 4 weeks on the handout he gave me.

Thank you for the info, Ashia! Did the officer say anything about the PR card?

Thank you for your reply. I see you have landed. Did you get proof of landing or something like that when you landed?

Majromax and Ashia - thank you for your reply! I'm still not sure if I should land by flagpoling and then visit US or visit US first and then land after the visit. I tried to find answers on other threads but I couldn't get the answer. Thank you!

I've been living in Canada for about a year. Now that I have CoPR, I'm planning to go visit my parents in US. ( My dad hasn't seen his grandson for a year) I have until November 23 rd to land. I waz thinking I'll leave Canada and visit US, and then return and land in August. But I really do...

Yea, why can't ecas be a little more detailed. We are not asking too much here. It'd add more work on the agents though I suppose.

I should have said ecas is useless when it comes to monitoring application's progress. After all, it's the ecas that gave me the good news, DM.

Yes, ecas is useless. I wouldn't have known about GMCS notes if I didn't find this forum. Maybe it was mentioned in application guide or SA letter or somewhere and I missed it?

Oh nice! I see almost everybody is ordering GMCS notes these days. I read a lot of people said it's helpful and worth it. I never really got around to it though.

I was reading September thread and somebody from there received an email from CIC, stating that it was their second email requesting a couple of documents. The person said they never received the first email. That's something I haven't heard of. Maybe CIC never sent the first email but they...

Congratulations to you also! Maybe you'll get condition statement when you land? I won't get it since my husband and I have a child in common. Can anybody else answer the question? It's a good question though. I haven't seen anybody else brought it up yet.

My CoPR came in yesterday, 5 days after DM. It's a big relief since I wasn't really sure if I should expect CoPR or the opposite of CoPR. It expires on Nov 23rd 2015. I hope DMs and CoPRs are on the way for those who are still waiting!
